Paris and Manchester have both re-
solved on a ship canal; it now appears
that Brussels is determined not to be be-
midland, and therefore proposal has
been made to the municipality to con-
struct ship canal to the Scheldt, having
a depth of SIX and half meters. with
quays sufficiently capacious to allow
twenty ships of $500 tons each to I'M
load or load. and the whole is to be con
nected with the great Belgian line of
railway. The scheme is bold one. but
the company who will undertake tiff it
is carried outs an English one, and the
contractors and workers will. doubtless.
be English. too.
While on this subject we may mention
that such another scheme is about to be
attempted in south Russia by the cutting
of a canal across the isthmus of Perekop,
to connect the sea of Azov with the
waters of the Black sea. BY this plan a
saving of 100 miles of very rough sailing
will be effected. and more especially the
dangerous passage of Kertch, which in
winter is constantly closed by ice. 1t is
supposed that the making of this canal
will greatly improve the coal and salt
trades of Donetz and Odessa. which alone
in commercial point of view, is mat
ter of the highest importance. Cham

WASHINGTON, May General Miles
has forwarded to the Acknowledgement
a dispatch from Lieut.-Colonel Forsythe
commanding Fort Huachuaca reporting
that severe earthquake passed through
the Huachuaca range on Tuesday night, FOL
lowed by two lighter shocks st intervals
of forty minutes. A heavy pail of smoke
hung over the San Jose mountains, and
a heavy column of smoke began to ascend
from the highest peak. AS there is no
timber on this range, and the hills in the
vicinity are covered with lava, it is
thought the mountain has become a vol
cano. An exploring party will be sent.

1t was increased in that struggle to SI7O,-
600, 900. In 1916 this debt was gradually
reduced, until in 1885 it was only S37, 900.
This was the lowest point in our whole
